Your Liver is Your Very Own Personal Assistant!

Are you eating perfectly clean, training like a machine and still not seeing the results you deserve? Perhaps even struggling with a spasmodic menstrual cycle? It could be your liver.

The liver is your very own Personal Assistant. It is responsible for cleaning out your blood before it passes on to the rest of the body. It detoxifies toxins and chemicals and metabolises drugs. Working together with the gallbladder and pancreas it also helps with digestion.

When a person consumes alcohol the liver recognises this as a chemical so focuses on this being its primary job to clean up. The Ethanol in the alcohol is broken down for easier elimination. This will always be the first thing it metabolises. Everything else gets converted to fat until further notice, when the liver has time to deal with it. If it is faced with alcohol on a daily basis, it is over worked and it never ends up getting to the rest of its cleaning work. This results to fat being stored on and around the liver, leading to a build-up of visceral fat around the abdomen (the dangerous fat) and Alcoholic’s Fatty Liver Disease. When the liver develops this it then struggles to function optimally causing toxicity to build up around the body. This toxicity is responsible for a range of ailments including menstrual issues, digestive issues, inability to burn fat, obesity, Metabolic Syndrome, inflammation, to name just a few. As such, it is vital that alcohol is kept to a minimum for optimal health and coupled with a clean healthy diet.

A clean healthy diet is important because when you consume high quantities of sugars such as those found in processed foods, these sugars are converted by the liver to Ethanol and treated exactly the same way alcohol is. The end result here can be Non-Alcoholic’s Fatty Liver Disease, with the same risk factors as Alcoholic’s Fatty Liver Disease, even if you have never sipped a glass of alcohol in your life!

So if you have recently (in the last 3-6 months) changed your diet to a much fresher, cleaner range of produce and are wondering why you are still struggling to lean up, you may want to have your liver checked. You may find that it is in fact working quite sluggishly because of a past unfavourable lifestyle that is coming back to haunt you. Think of it like buying flowers for your PA to put a smile on their face after a bad week.

Your doctor can help you with improving your liver function. Alternatively you can consult with a Functional Health Practitioner, or a Personal Trainer like me, that has studied Functional Health. Through diet, exercise, water and certain detox and nutrient support supplements, we can have that little Personal Assistant working at its maximum capacity in no time!

So be kind to your liver. Limit alcohol and processed food consumption, drink plenty of water, exercise and consult with a professional listed above if you require further assistance.

TESTIMONIALS

I am so proud to be a part of the Terrific Fitness family. I have been training with Terri since her first session in her garage to now her very own studio. Watching Terri and this company grow has been amazing.

Of all the companies out there, I chose to train with TF because the trainer was real, she tells you how it is and has her own life experiences to build from. I find it’s more rewarding to learn from someone who has had life experiences and not just someone out of school with a PT degree and no story to relate too. Read More

I chose Terrific Fitness after seeing one of my friends from mothers’ group losing weight and looking great. I asked her what she was doing and she told me she was training at Terrific Fitness. So I decided to join her and give it ago after I had put on 30kgs after my first child & was finding it hard to get my pre baby body back. So I thought I had nothing to lose if I gave it ago.

Thank God I did as it’s one of the best things I did for myself and my family, I’ve never looked back. I have now been training with Read More

Why terrific Fitness? This is a question I get asked a lot from family and friends. I was looking at personal training a few years back after getting nowhere with my health and fitness. At that time I had 2 knee reconstructions 1 on each knee, 2 bulging discs in my back, I was unhappy with myself in total, health, shape, weight, look. I was angry and unhappy.

Being unable to go back to my beloved sport that I lived for I had to look at different options. I looked online for PT’s close to Read More
